Portrait of law student Schreiber Pereira

The Faculty of Law is deeply saddened to announce the passing of student Schreiber Pereira. He had completed his second year at law school and spent the previous semester in London, UK at the Centre for Transnational Legal Studies.

Schreiber also obtained his undergraduate and graduate degrees at the University of Toronto, and he will be very missed by the U of T community across various faculties.

The law school has grief counseling services available to students on July 23 from 3 pm – 4 pm in FA3 in Falconer Hall. Alexis Archbold, our Assistant Dean Students, is also available to meet with students individually. Students can contact her directly, including after hours, at alexis.archbold@utoronto.ca.

We extend our sincere condolences to Schreiber’s family and friends. Our thoughts are with them during this time.

Comments

Schreiber and I were friends since our first year of law school. He was a genuine, funny, caring and intelligent person. The last time I saw him, he was laughing and on his roller blades, telling me about his upcoming exchange to London. I was hoping to meet him this summer and hear all about his experiences abroad. I am shocked and saddened to hear that he is gone - in my mind, he is still alive and riding his roller blades along Lake Ontario. My condolences go out to his family and friends. We will all miss him terribly.
